Im just curious , i hear people complain about the voice acting in games , and i really don't notice the quality of voice acting because i usually always read the subtitles, but im curious to know what GOOD Voice acting sounds like and what games have the best Voice acting in your opinions?
go to google type in bioware then write down all those games done:) i gotta say though that while it is a very good trend in bioware games there are many others that are as good or better for instance batman arkham asylum has probably the BEST voice acting ever due to the fact that they got the cast from the animated series to do it.

The Mass Effect games, Assassin's Creed 1/2/Brotherhood, and Baldur's Gate 2 all come to mind. Actually... Bioware games in general seem to be pretty good with voices.

Well... Dragon Age had a few bad ones. >_>

Batman: Arkham Asylum. Mostly for the fact that it uses the original voice actors from the animated series. I mean, Mark Hamill as the Joker? Pretty hard to beat
Off topic: The Batman animated series was absolutely amazing. It definitely made up for all the bad Batman movies before the modern ones starting with Batman Begins. I mean Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze *shudders*.
I think it's completely sort of on topic. That cartoon is one of the defining elements of my childhood! Basically everything I know about Batman I based off of those cartoons and when I get the $ I am tracking them down on DVD. Ah, good times coming home from school or waking up Saturday mornings to watch those...

Good voice acting? There's quite a bit out there.

Final Fantasy X
I hope you are kidding.
I'll defend that one, but with this qualifier: Final Fantasy X actually had pretty good voice acting, it just didn't have a great script.

That is some of the worst voice acting I've ever heard. It did get a lot better from Dawn of War 2 onwards though.

I always liked to think Just Cause 2's acting sucked because everyone was making up their own accent for the fictional country. But even that doesn't excuse the LEEDAH OF DEH REEPAHS.

Red Dead Redemption
Enslaved
Half Life (Alyx)

Also, I adore ME2, but the VAing is just mediocre. Bioware just disguises it well.

dragon age origins all the characters have such great voice actors.

Also you have to give props to Oblivion's voice actors for making a conversation with themselves sound convincing... lol. Poor things are worked to exhaustion


Oh and troll face Norman


I just love the way he says 'tough guy' xD

Mass Effect 2 - You can bash Bioware for anything but VA is not one of them.

Half Life Series - 'Nuff said.

Heavy Rain

Nier, hands down. The Voice acting for that game was essentially perfect as far as I'm concerned. It always seemed to have perfect delivery for any and all situations the game needed. The voices also just... fit with the characters. Don't know how to describe it.

Another one that was well done, though not to the extent of nier, was Valkyria Chronicles (My Favorite game ^^)
